Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that you are pregnant. Unprotected sexual intercourse can lead to pregnancy though it is more likely to happen during the ovulation period of 10 days to 2 weeks after the last period.
You may want to consider a home pregnancy test which are usually accurate. These tests detect the level of HCG in the urine, an early detection test would be able to pick up small amounts.
. HCG is present in detectable quantities 12 to 14 days after conception.
I hope this helps
